Her true inspiration was not world music or new age of any kind but celtic and classic

""It's difficult when you've been brought up Catholic, to turn completely away from it. What I found in my twenties was I got more involved with the spiritual side of it. I've been known to go to church when there's nobody else there. It's very therapeutic when it's quite empty. It's so hard in a moment of despair not to say a prayer. Instead of abandoning (Catholicism), which is impossible to do, I kind of tried to turn it around and make it work for me. There is this calmness that is absolutely wonderful."

[ Eithne Padraigín Ní Bhraonáin AKA Enya Patricia Brennan AKA Enya ]

Resgatar o tempo, a ludicidade das relações simples em sua componente curadoura e balanceadora

No século IV, Santo Agostinho dizia saber o que era o tempo, mas ter dificuldade de defini-lo. A humanidade estuda a evolução dos tempos. A Meteorologia estuda a variação dos climas e a História descreve a sucessão das épocas [...]. Mas, enquanto os capitalistas crêem, religiosamente, que tempo é dinheiro, muitas comunidades tradicionais continuam sem relógio. Ainda há muita gente no campo e mesmo na cidade que dedica o melhor de seu tempo para conviver, conversar e estar com as pessoas que ama. Vivem o tempo de forma mais gratuita, na relação uns com os outros, com a natureza e com o mistério, fonte de tudo. Em comunidades indígenas que ainda podem viver sua cultura original, homens e mulheres adultos, que devem prover o alimento e organizar o cotidiano, aprendem, [com as] crianças, a produzir sem perder a dimensão lúdica da vida. Recordam a nossa sociedade que o tempo pode ser pensado e vivido como graça e oportunidade de relacionamento e doação. Todos fazem confidências à lua e namoram as estrelas. A eles, as estrelas-guias se queixam dos homens sérios que trabalham tanto que nem mais escutam os sussurros do céu e perdem a orientação nas noites escuras da vida.

A Survivor Feeling

My lips are shaking my nails are bit off.
Been a month since I've heard myself talk.
All the advantage this life's got on me.
Picture a coffin in the middle of the sea.

And I fight back in my mind. Never lets me be right.
I got memories. I got shit so much it don't show.

Oh, I walked alive when you held me in that night.
I walked alive when you held my hand that night.

An empty shell seems so easy to crack.
Got all these questions. Don't know who I could even ask.
So I'll just lie alone and wait for the dream where I'm not ugly and you're looking at me.

And I stay in bed. Oh, little ive seen there.
If just once I could feel loved, oh, Stare back at me . Yeah.

But I walked alive when you held me in that night.
Oh, I walked alive when you held my hand that night.
Oh, I walked alive when you held me close that night.
I paid the price. Never held you in real life.
My lips are shaking...

"For my own part, I have never had a thought which I could not set down in words with even more distinctness than that with which I conceived it.

There is, however, a class of fancies of exquisite delicacy which are not thoughts, and to which as yet I have found it absolutely impossible to adapt to language.

These fancies arise in the soul, alas how rarely.

Only at epochs of most intense tranquillity, when the bodily and mental health are in perfection.

And at those weird points of time, where the confines of the waking world blend with the world of dreams.

And so I captured this fancy, where all that we see, or seem, is but a dream within a dream."

Germaine

I do think that women could make politics irrelevant.

By as a kind of spontaneous cooperative action,the like of which we have never seen.

Which is so far from people's ideas of state structureand vital social structure that seems to them like total anarchy.

And what it really is, is very subtle forms of interrellation which do not follow sort of hierachical pattern which is fundamentally patriarchal.

The opposite to patriarchy is not matriarchy but fraternity.

And I think it's women who are going to have tobreak this spiral of powerand find the trick of cooperation.
